I do "gitk --merge" (which has an implicit file limit of the list of unmerged files) or just "gitk ORIG_HEAD.. Makefile" and the *history* of gitk looks fine. But the diffs are crap and useless, because they contain all the stuff I did *not* want, and hides all the relevant information. So then I might use the nice gitk history window to see the commits, but I will fall back on "git log -p --merge" and "git log -p ORIG_HEAD.. Makefile" for the real work. I had that happen unusually many times lately, since we had a fair number of (mostly trivial) conflicts during this merge window. And it's sad. Gitk is so good in so many other ways, and then it is so *totally* useless when it comes to something as fundamental as just looking at the history of a few files.
